Hi Me,

Carefully lift up the little rubber suction cup attached to the crt exposing
the two visable wires of the spring clip. There is usually a weak adhesive
that bonds the rubber cup to the glass to minimise corona. With a needle
nosed pliars grip the two metal wires squeeze them and lift up.

ZAP!!!!!!.......5 second pause......*#$%^&&*^!!!!!! Ow!!!!!!

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, before you do anything, connect a cliplead to
a metal part of the chassis and touch the other end to the anode spring clip
I mentioned above. The crt acts as a capacitor and can hold a high voltage
charge for a long time, maybe even weeks. It's enough to knock you on your
tush!

The rest of it will require a screw driver, possibly a small red nut driver,
wire cutters, a soldering iron, and some patience. Save the big transistor
on a heatsink that is near the flyback. It will come in handy when building
the driver circuit.
